They celebrated 62 Years of marriage before Joe preceded her in death on February 28, 2017. Joyce enjoyed gardening, stamp collecting, researching and documenting her family's genealogy and collecting rocks from their road trips. She was a faithful Catholic and had a wealth of common-sense wisdom. Her family was always her priority.

In addition to her husband, she was preceded in death by her daughter: Mary Maravelas; great-grand daughter Maisie Kulig; her parents; sister: Imelda Lilla; and brothers: Harvey and John Jostad.
